An Everlasting Itch For Things Remote by Chrissy22

Summary
“Is the alien…dangerous?” he asks slowly.
“No! No, no he’s my friend, he’s - uh, well, the engineer of the Hail Mary,” says Grace. “Look, I’m just saying that - he’s gonna wake up soon, and we don’t need to tell him about how our first meeting went. We can gloss over the whole ‘tackle me to the ground and scare the daylights out of me’ thing. I won’t tell if you won’t.”
Simon is 90% sure this is going to come back to bite him in the form of blackmail but he nods anyways, because it sure as hell sounds like Grace is implying Simon will be allowed to stay a while longer.
Rocky sleeps through the absolute shitshow that is Simon and Grace’s first meeting. It’s probably for the best.
Despite it all, it will be the start of beautiful friendship.Bookmarked by FireTear

Summary
Simon has never been good with kids. When a child appears out of thin air in his submarine and the COI still refuses to pull him up, all Simon can do is protect her from the horrors of the ocean. Even if he knows there's not much hope for either of them to live.
Ryland Grace is living his best life on Erid. He has a wonderful best friend, scientific colleagues who respect him, and students who adore him. Unless he decides to make the journey back to Earth, however, he doesn't expect to see another human any time soon. He certainly wasn't expecting to stumble upon a traumatized father and daughter welded into a blood-filled submarine.

Summary
Grace and Simon have ended their stories. Unfortunately, neither of them had their happy ending.
Grace has found a tentative home on Erid. He's living with his soulmates, Rocky and Adrian. He's saved the stars, set foot on distant worlds... and he's starving. Not even just for food, although that's part of it. His first love was humanity, Earth. He loved science, teaching, and making friends. And now he's 10 years away from it all and desperate for human connection.
Simon is objectively worse off. His prayer to live was answered by the Blood God, but in its ignorance it did not distinguish between Simon and the rest of the SM-13. He's stuck in a hellish limbo, encased in the mutant tree and fused with the submarine, reliving the horror of the last moments of his life, waiting for freedom.Will he get his freedom?
I know I know. Another "Grace finds Simon floating in space" fic. Listen, I was blissfully ignorant. After consuming some bloodymary fanart I was unwillingly possessed by a hell-creature, vomiting the contents of this fic into my notes app while the Great Unknowable Eye of God beheld me in my stupor. After three days of not eating or sleeping, I returned to consciousness and had to upload this.

If the Stars Could Bleed by KC Terra (Coora360)

Summary
The first thing Simon Fischer learned about saving humanity was that no one asked whether he wanted the job. They simply informed him he was the only engineer qualified to keep the Mary alive. Every propulsion system, environmental control, fabrication unit, air recycler, or electrical failure would be catastrophic. If something broke millions of miles from Earth, there would be no repair crew to call, no replacement parts waiting in a warehouse, and definitely no second chances. There would only be Simon.
He'd argued, refused, and even pointed out there had to be someone else. There wasn't. The sun was dimming, and every calculation ended the same way: someone had to go. So Simon went.
He hadn't expected to become humanity's last engineer, and he certainly hadn't expected to become friends with a mysterious scientist welded into a submarine.
